Buddhism is probably one of the better organised religions. While the Buddha is the central figure he is acknowledged as a man. No more divine than a church elder in any other religion. His teachings may be considered Holy. But given by a man.. Some of those teachings are in my view superior in many ways to any of the god of Abraham laws. For instance the doctrine of respect for all living things. (We could use a little of that I think you will agree. And the idea that since we are all a part of god, harming anyone is harming god.. Thats a nice one too.. Now I am not a believer at all. But if you want to believe in something, I think you could do worse..😷

Some folk will be surprised to know Buddhism doesn't teach reincarnation and its an atheistic belief system.
It's all about self development,compassion and wisdom.

Yes Buddhism is more a philosophy than religion although some turn it into a religous practice.

I think it’s more spiritual, religion is man made.
